...Weberburger was holding a number of Confederate flags. Also, he wore a yarmulke and fake beard...
Weberburger told Yahoo News that he is “a little bit Jewish” by ancestry, though it’s not his religion. He explained that his outfit and sign was meant to make the point that the burning of Columbia was “a holocaust.”
“It was a holocaust, and Jews are especially sensitive to that. I wish more would be,” Weberburger said. “Judah Benjamin was actually in the Cabinet of Jefferson Davis in the war between the states.”
Benjamin, who was a Jew, served as the Confederacy’s attorney general, secretary of war, and secretary of state.
“He was secretary of state, I believe,” Weberburger said.
Davis piped in.“He was the money man, Benjamin was, I believe,” Davis said.

But of course. I assume there has to be a segment of Lost Cause morons who apply a stab-in-the-back idea to Benjamin. Just because those assholes gravitate to that kind of idiocy.
